The figure of 1,695 has been given as the total number of those who have signed up to the scheme. Does Repak have an estimate as to how many retailers have not signed up?

In response to Mr. McDonagh's comment, I have no doubt but that the majority of legitimate tyre wholesalers and retailers will ensure that their tyres are disposed of properly. My question, however, was very specific: how can a back-loaded scheme be tightened up to ensure that everything will be captured?
